As the title suggests, I'm not a gamer. I'm also not into video editing. I use my computer almost exclusively for work, and it's great for that, but my ancient GPU is unsupported and needs to be replaced. (On-board graphics chip is also unsupported.) I'm looking for an up-to-date GPU for a home office computer. I will appreciate your suggestions. Thanks!

"What do you do on your PC?"

Microsoft Office, Zoom, internet, watch video ... nothing that requires an advanced GPU. I think you're missing my point:

I need to replace the graphics card I have because it's been unsupported for years and has recently started to cause STOP errors. A low-end product is probably all I need but I don't know much about GPUs, not being a gamer. So what's a good low-end card for me to use?
Your GPU isnt holding your back at that 'workload', something else is the problem.
Your 'workload' can be done with ease on integrated graphics, let alone a dedicated GPU.
Do you have a SSD?
That would help your browsing/ operating a TON.
